We'd like to say a huge 'Thank You' to Jamie from A1 Tree Surgeons who gave up his time and resources to help us. As you can see the discovery of a Dragon's nest on our school field certainly gave our learners an interesting first day back with an 'egg-citing' week ahead! https://t.co/jCgYD0CnOG
All the latest news from Springside
We have recently had a Dragon spotted on the school roof! We have also found Dragon eggs on the school field. The learners are now writing descriptions of the eggs they have found, searching school for different dragon findings and recording what they find to assist our Dragonologist.

Next week (week beginning Monday 4th February 2019) is our British Heart Foundation awareness week.
Every effort will be made to keep school open at all times, but regard to children’s safety must take precedence.
There was recently a competition to design a Christmas card that all schools in Rochdale was invited to enter.
Here at Springside we believe that all behaviour is a form of communication. We are always striving to develop our learners to ensure this communication is appropriate and as easy as possible. Nevertheless, there are occasions where our learners require different levels support as they develop these skills.
We are currently updating our Behaviour policy which outlines how we work with our learners to develop these skills. We are also updating our restrictive physical intervention policy which, on occasions we have to utilise to ensure everybody in our community is safe.
We are currently undertaking a consultation period for these policies and invite all families to view the draft policies below and share their opinions on them via office@springside.rochdale.sch.uk please use the email subject POLICY CONSULTATION.
In addition, we are invite all families to a session whereby our behaviour lead, Mark Hitchen, will be sharing our vision and how the policy is reflected in day to day practice. This will take place early next half term, if you wish to attend please check your child’s bag and reply to the letter that will be sent home shortly.
We've all had a great time supporting Macmillan Cancer Support with our Bake off!
Thank you to all our families for their fantastic support in making this such a wonderful event. Our learners had a fantastic time too, developing their social skills, serving the customers and keeping the hall clean and tidy.
Congratulations to our member of staff Ayesha who won the competition as voted for by our Learner Council and Mrs Terry, the Headteacher at our Learning Community neighbours, Hamer.
